OH MY GOD AHAHAHHAHAA
 
Home Alone 4 with Macaulay Culkin would be him lost in confusion as to why the fuck they made Marv look like Harry, the director did not even bother to know who was who in the originals
 
I've thought through this idea before. I think after the events of 2 (meeting Pigeon Lady, using his traps for justice instead of survival) - the next film would follow Kevin as a pseudo-vigilante.

He sees through the news that the Sticky Bandits have escaped custody once again - and realizes only he can stop them. Using his skills at amateur police work, he pins them as being somewhere in California, scamming tourists at a local amusement park.

Kevin then starts plotting to get left 'Home Alone' one more time. But the family has started to realize the complete absurdity of this franchise, and has taken every imaginable step to keep the family together in their annual Christmas vacation. There's no escape. But in a fortunate coincidence, they find a last-second deal for a vacation at the exact same theme park that the Bandits are prowling.

We follow Kevin has he ditches his family on multiple occasions, and he finds the Bandits. Through cunning measures, he reveals himself and convinces them that the amusement park's most valuable treasure will be easy to snatched on Christmas Eve night - when all staff & security will have the day off.

Throughout this, Kevin's family seek him out - getting into gags along the way (including a predictable run-in at the Angels With Filthy Souls anamatronic experience). Most of them assume he just naturally wandered off, but his Mom is convinced something more concerning is afoot. She's noticed Kevin becoming more distant in the past year, and worries that the past two Christmases have jaded him to his family.

Christmas Eve is when Kevin sets his ultimate trap, a maze of slapstick gags that will show the Bandits once and for all. But plans go awry as his Mom wanders into the trap at the same time. In the final chaotic act, Kevin rushes to save his unsuspecting mother from his creation - as the Bandits fall for the traps one more time. Eventually Kevin realizes all the damage he has caused, and gets his Mom to safety. Leaving the Bandits in a compromised position for the authorities, he reunites with his loved ones and has a good old fashioned Christmas.

It isn't as bad as some claim. Hell, Roger Ebert thought it was the best Home Alone film.
Call me hard-hearted, call me cynical, but please don't call me if they make “Home Alone 3.” These words, from my review of “Home Alone 2,” now have to be eaten. To my astonishment, I liked the third “Home Alone” movie better than the first two; I'm even going so far as to recommend it, although not to grownups unless they are having a very silly day. This movie follows the exact formula of the first two, but is funnier and gentler, has a real charmer for a hero, and provides splendid wish fulfillment and escapism for kids in, say, the lower grades.

Home Alone 3 already exists, and is fucking great. Not "masterpiece" great but great in the way The Room and Kindergarden Cop are great. Super watchable, super entertaining.

Best of the trilogy, by far.
 
Kevin is in a plane crash that gives him amnesia. He is taken in by a nice family that makes him part of the family. He grows an sadistic side to him that gets worse when Elijah Wood comes to stay with the family. He get jealous that he no longer has his mother's full attention so he really goes off the rails. He goes full pyscho and tries to kill young Wood. Mother comes to stop them but they end up dangling from a cliff each being held onto by her. One son for each arm. She can only save one son. She chose young Elijah because he truly was the Good Son. Kevin dies an awful painful death.

I haven't seen that movie in over 20 years. Give me a break
 
Home Alone 3 was the only one I had on VHS so I saw it at least 15 times. was a go-to at sleepovers. always liked it more than the first two and I feel vindicated to see I was on team Ebert with that opinion

In addition to Chumbawamba it had this song "My Town" by Cartoon Boyfriend that still pops into my head. it is god awful/I love it

insert hilarious scene of Kevin holding up the Mona Lisa and going "Woof"
 
In hell. Home Alone was where John Hughes's talent went to die.
EDIT: I'll race you again, the anime man... soon. And I will beat you.
 
I had a pitch awhile back for the idea of a new Home Alone movie starring Kevin.

The idea was that when he grew up, his knowledge of home invasion led him into the security business. Now he's the head of the President's security detail, on Christmas eve the president gave his security the night off, except Kevin, who refused to leave him just in case something happened, and then people start breaking into the white house. So now Kevin has to setup traps throughout the white house and actually deal with violent criminals.

Think the house scene from Skyfall, but the whole movie.
 
Why was Malcolm McDowell in a Home Alone movie.

Why not add him in the Olympus Has Fallen franchise? Keep the Kevin McAllister name and everything.

It'd need to be the President's kid, not the President.
